Description Jan Becicka 2000-08-07 17:21:51 UTC 
If user writes class, which implements interface, which doesn't exist and
invokes Tools | Synchronize -> nothing happens. It is correct, but user should
now what is wrong. If he/she makes keying mistake in name of interface and then
invoke Synchronization, he/she don't know why it doesn't work.

It will be nice, if some Diolog, showing "Interface BlahBlah not found", will
appear or something like that.
Comment 1 Svata Dedic 2000-08-16 08:02:59 UTC 
I would rather add some option for this behaviour like
"Warn if interface does not exist" Yes/No
"Notify if no changes are needed" Yes/No etc
Comment 2 Jan Becicka 2002-01-11 17:19:29 UTC 
Reopening for 3.4
Comment 3 Svata Dedic 2002-05-21 17:48:25 UTC

Source Synchronization:

Should this function to be extended to :
 - supply a menu item -Implements Interface(s)- in Tools(or Code
contexts) main menu
 - supply a browse button/comboBox to browse awared interfaces(which
stand in classpath).
 or auto-generate a list as autopop code-completion in code editor.

 miss this, you have to remember the interface exactly. The same
function is missed in the same contexts. - Add new class to implemets
some interfaces and extends context.
